Blogger: How Many Officials Are Paid By Taxpayers?

Chinese New Year has passed. Companies large and small will have to start paying taxes.

We need to support the government, the largest government system in the world.

We also need to support the Communist Party, the most autocratic dictatorial organization in the world.

We also need to support the National People’s Congress, the most incapable and pretentious representation of the people in the world.

We also need to support the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Committee, the most infamous political puppet in the world.

We need to support the Communist Youth League Committees, which include another set of bureaucracies.

We need to support those token “democratic parties,” and who knows how many people are in this group.

We also need to support all those “social associations,” and there are probably thousands of them out there.

We even need to support those so-called Buddhist monks and other religious institutions.
